II. s. JEFFERYS.
THE CYCLONE EXTINGUISHER.

TIRzAH, S. c., March 10, 1887.
MEssRs. JEFFERYs & HoKE, Gents:
TTNHE Cyclone Spark ~Extinguisher put on my
engine a few months ago is giving entire
satisfaction. Before it was put on, my gin
house several times caught fire from sparks, so
I had to quit running while the wind was blow
ing in the direction of the Clubhouse. Now I
can gin and saw with perfect safety, no matter
which way the wind blows. Haven'ts seen a live
spark from the engine since I have been usingit
And another goodthing aboutit is, it can't wear
or burn out. Will last as long as the engine. 1
think it a great invention, and wouldn't take
double the cost of mine if it was so I couldn't
get another one. I think you ought to reduce
the present high rate reinsurance on gin-houses
where these extinguishers are used on the en-
gines, or, at least, recommend such to the COM
panies you represent, because I see no risk
whatever from the engine.
Very respectfully,
HENRY MASSEY.

DARK CONTINENT WONDERS.-A tray
eler who has just returned from an eXpe-
dition through Central Africa, gives a WV
id description of the horrors of the Kala-
hart desert, in which, he says, it would he
quite impossible for any one to live, were
it not for the existence of the 'sama," or
wild watermelon, which grows in profu-
sion, and affords food and drink to both
man and beast. The author suggests that
the introduction of the "sama" would rem
der vast tracts of worthless land in the
United States available for cattle raising.
The natives of the Kalahart region always
go provided with a stock of dried poison
bags of various kinds of snakes, and, if
bitten, they at once rub into the wound
the poison of another kind of serpent,
which neutralizes the venom in the
wound. Even more singular, perhaps, is
the statement that whereas by the sting of
the scorpion there is accompanied extreme
pain, swelling and some danger to life, a
native who is stung at once looks for an
the second sting entirely counteracting the
effect of the first.
WATER AS A MISUNDERSTANDING
drinking water, if taken in large quanti-
ties, acts as a solvent and a diuretic, and
also increases the p%erspiration if the tenn
perature of the air be high. Taken in the
quantity of 1 or 2 quarts at a time, the
dilutent effect of water is often sufficient
to eliminate an excess of alcohol from the
blood, as after taking too much wine.
Another effect of large draughts of water
is to make the pulse slower and to dimin-
ish slightly the normal temperature of
the body.
Increase of weight has been claimed as
a result of systematic water drinking on
retiring for the night. The latest research
es do not bear out this conclusion. Water
thus taken will prevent any actual loss of
weight, but it is not shown that it will do
anything more. With the addition of a
moderate stimulant, however, it has often
a decidely fattening etfect.-Hmper's Mag
uzi2e.
